Questions & Answers about Quiero comer más sano.
Why is sano used here instead of an adverb like sanamente?
In Spanish, it is very common to use a masculine singular adjective to describe how an action is done. While sanamente (healthily) is grammatically correct, native speakers usually just say sano in everyday conversation.
If a woman says this, should she say Quiero comer más sana?
Could I use saludable instead of sano?
Why doesn't comer change its ending to match the speaker?
When you have two verbs working together like this, only the first one is conjugated to match the person doing the action (Quiero for I want). The second verb stays in its dictionary form, which is called the infinitive (comer for to eat).
